Backup to Disk Auto-respond

[Rick_Clow]

I hope this has not been asked and answered....I did check! I am running two 160G fire wire 400 hard drives with backup to disk. Even though I have run BEUTIL and set auto-respond to yes on all questions I still get alert messages asking me if I want to over write the data. I have over write protection set to 0 days. This seems to happen on every directory I'm trying to backup. HELP PLEASE!!!!!!

It obviously wont take 0 minutes as a parameter. Now it just sits there saying....Loading Media......This is becoming very aggravating.

Hello,

For the Loading Media please try the following.

1. Perform an inventory operation and check whether it works properly.
2. Have you installed AOFO ?
If yes, then perform a test backup of few files without selecting the AOFO
3. Install the latest service pack of Backup Exec.
VERITAS Backup Exec (tm) 9.1 for Windows Servers revision 4691 - Service Pack 2

As for the Alerts, please check the following:
- Are there any event IDs related to Backup Exec?
- Perform a small backup for test purposes and verify the results.

Do revert with the results.
